How come results are down? Shouldn´t happen in such an event. Very bad!

According to PLuto the problem is in local timing system and therefore the problems are same for all result websites.

It is a necessary thing luckily a few minutes' stage so why bother. If this is the price the organization has to pay to get the buget sorted for the whole rally weekend, I would say; okay then. Normally when we are at rally and there is such a stage we go to starting order you can see the drivers close and have a talk with them, or making pictures. I see such a stage as ideal for dads and their little kids to spread the rally virus

I agree with You. I think the best example of successful city stage is Barum Rally Zlín city stage. The stage is quite wide, relatively fast and long for a city stage an extremely crowded every year (around 40 thousand people every year). Even quite many drivers like it and I know that many foreign spectators come here mainly to experience the city stage.

Before this event even started, all Porsche fans knew that this stages are not suited for 911 GT3. The heavy back of the car is not tailored for jumps, car is simply to nervous...911 likes smooth ground, with fast, open corners and long straights.....Maybe a ''special'' driver like Snijers, Zeltner, Delecour, Dumas...wolud be faster, but no way a match against R5......

I'm sure it is possible to make times in top 20 with Porsche in CoI and I personally think even top 10 could be possible in some stages. The car is not so bad. It requires big balls to drive but itself the car is fast.

Top 10 maybe for Delecour level driver today on dryer roads, yesterday running further back on wet mucky roads the car looked nasty to drive, looked and sounded great though

Nice and tight for the last 50km!
